From Interspire:
Web shopping cart & online store software by BigCommerce, enables anyone to sell online without technical knowledge. BigCommerce includes everything you need to sell online, accept and process credit cards, create marketing campaigns and view business intelligence reports. You can have your own fully customized online store up and running in just 20 minutes - no technical knowledge required. Version 1.0 now has no transaction fees, 30 second signup and free for life plan.

Only ONE from shipping addresses, if someone like me has multiple suppliers Big Commerce is the wrong choice.Can not have different shipping options for different categories. So you can not offer automatic free / fixed cost.

Summary

if you have only one location to ship from and you don't want to have different policies for shipping and if you need API integration, i guess you can go with Big Commerce.

The only con that I see about the software is that they do not offer abandoned cart saver on all of their plans.

Summary

Most merchants will find Bigcommerce the ideal shopping cart solution for their online store. There is a great Bigcommerce review that can be found at: http://ecommercesoftwarereviews.net/bigcommerce-review

Major Cons:Can not have more than one from shipping addressCan not have different shipping options for different products, like free shipping on certain products and fixed rate shipping on certain products.Wasted my time and just started looking for alternative platform.

GOOD CUSTOMER SUPPORT, EASY-TO-USE FREE, GOOD-LOOKING TEMPLATES, SHORT LEARNING CURVE FOR WHICH YOU DO NOT NEED EXTENSIVE SUPPORT (unlike VOLUSION and others). SSL SUPPLIED, ALTHOUGH YOU CAN PURCHASE YOUR OWN. $100.00 IN GOOGLE AD WORDS FOR EACH PACKAGE, SMALL OR LARGE. VERY REASONABLE FEES. NO CONTRACT! YOU CAN UPGRADE, DOWNGRADE OR CANCEL ANY TIME. I LIKE THAT. OH, YES: IT INTEGRATES WITH PRETTY MUCH ALL OF THE CREDIT CARD PROCESSING GATEWAYS OUT THERE, SO EVEN IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE BEST CREDIT YOU CAN STILL FIND A GOOD, RELIABLE PROVIDER. YOU CAN BUY A WEB DESIGN PACKAGE IF YOU WANT, BUT IF YOU ARE ON A BUDGET YOU CAN STILL BUILD YOURSELF A VERY NICE STORE.

Cons

SOMETIMES CAPACITY SLOWS, BUT ALL I HAVE TO DO IS RE-LOG IN AND IT GOES AWAY.

easy to use. YOu get can get an ecommerce site up and running fairly quickly.

Cons

Obvious capacity problems. Hopefully, it is temporary. Sometimes it takes retry after retry to log in to the administration console to view orders and make changes.

Summary

All was positive until a month ago...then, (according to their support desk), the started showing signs of capacity problems. over-capacity, that is. Can't seem to get an answer on when the issues will be resolved. very disappointing.

Hi all, Your review is really impressive! I have a small experience of using BigCommerce, as I had migrated my store from Shopp not long ago, ( with a help of Cart2Cart migration service, because I was scared to move all the data manually) but I found your information very useful. Thus I can say, Bigcommerce is really userfriendly and less problematic in store management.
